A song about my baby who likes to bare her sole - A special thanks to Rod Davis (RLD) for re-working the drums and bass on this
My Baby Doesn’t Do Shoes
She can walk across the water
She can walk upon the sand
Maybe travel on horseback
Or just walking hand in hand
A carriage will be just fine
Maybe a Limo sometimes
We can go anywhere I choose
But my baby doesn’t do shoes
No my baby doesn’t do shoes
She will smile at the people
As she walks down the street
They stop and stare
At the girl with nothing on her feet
There can be no denial
The charm of her barefoot smile
I don’t mean to confuse
But my baby doesn’t do shoes
No my baby doesn’t do shoes
When the weather’s not nice
I will carry her over the ice
She likes it when I take control
And she can really bare her sole
She can walk across the stream
There’ll be no cause for alarm
(but) Make sure you use those stepping stones
Or just hold on to my arm
No rocks or glass,
No nails or screws
And no burning embers
Coz my baby doesn’t do shoes
No my baby doesn’t do shoes
Have you heard the news?
